6 plus my self gathered at Ty Newedd on a glorious autumn day. the river was a little high and fast but perfectly clear.
During the morning session we looked at fishing the slower shallower sections with the duo and a few fish where caught.
Then after an early lunch we got back to the river in time to catch a hatch of LDO that brought about a spell of activity. We spent the afternoon fishing nymphs on a French leader every one was successful in catching a few fish both grayling and the odd OS brownie. It was good to see so many salmon splashing around too, including a couple of very big fish.

Eleven grayling plus five of which weighed over the lb with the best over 1.5lb and four small trout. Everything else caught on fly. Lots of salmon showing. I will probably book the beat in the salmon season next year.

16 grayling, 2 out of season trout and 1 salmon parr.

On arrival at the river it was evident the previous nights rain had caused the level to rise significantly, even so there remained a small degree of clarity rather than the hot chocolate colour it could have been! Being reasonably familiar with this beat we decided to persevere despite the booking office advising it would likely be a difficult day. We managed one small OOS trout landed between us which was safely returned but had several other pulls and fish on with a good sized trout being lost in the first half hour. All were taken on small goldhead nymphs very close to the bank. Unfortunately the river height meant that known fish holding spots were inaccessible but considering the conditions at least we had some sport.

No salmon caught or even seen all day. Water level still high and a bit cloudy so wading access limited. Couldn't reach planks. However, very beautiful beat with plenty of wildlife and, after below-zero temperature and mist to start, a sunny day.
First time on any Booking Office beat, so thanks to support from your staff. Will book again, when water conditions are better for fishing.
PS: quite a bit of H balsam on banks - is this a problem?

No salmon caught. The day started very misty but then the sun shone. I gave it a couple of hours then gave up.

ROJ fished on Wed, 10th all day and Thursday, 11th in the afternoon. Lost a fish in Green Bank on Wednesday morning and another in Bathing pool on Thursday afternoon but had a 6 lb-er from Dolmeuddy, Llanstephan on Thursday morning. JL had a 10 lber from the Bathing Pool on Thursday morning. All on size 6 Cascades and sink tip. What a lovely beat!

One salmon taken at Llanstephan - 6 lb grilse returned in good condition on a size 6 ally's shrimp from Dolmeudwy pool. Fishing there rather than Ty-Newydd thanks to Stephen M-S, but I did lose two at Ty-Newydd earlier, idiot that I am!
Many thanks for being so helpful

River running very high although surprisingly I could still see my boots when waist deep so fished all day. No Salmon caught, 2 good pulls below the Bathing Pool and 2 trout landed over 1lb.

4 trout to 14" and 1 grayling of 10" caught on grey wulff. Nice afternoon on this accessible and pretty stretch of water. Will go back.
